Our stay was absolutely wonderful. We spent seven nights in the master suite and enjoyed every single moment. Christiano was an exceptional host—warm, accommodating, and genuinely kind. He graciously allowed us to check in early and check out late without any issues, answered all of our questions, and even recommended a fantastic local market. The suite is perfectly located in Cosme Velho—private and secure, yet within walking distance of excellent restaurants and just a short drive from major attractions. Everything was spotless and very comfortable. Although we only had breakfast on our first morning, it was a delicious, home-cooked meal. The backyard was another highlight, offering a peaceful space to relax and take a swim
